After graduation, students will be ready to work in an introduction level position in their career choice, or they may choose to continue their education in a four-year institution offering a degree in computer science or related field.
There are two concentrations in the Associate of Science within the Computer Science program:
The Associates of Science in Computer Science prepares students for transfer to four-year institutions to pursue a baccalaureate degree in Computer Science or related field. This option offers the students desiring to have more business applications programming background to be more marketable in the business industry workforce.
The Associates of Science in Computer Science prepares students for transfer to four-year institutions to pursue a baccalaureate degree in Computer Science or related field or enter the technology job market directly. The program emphasizes mathematically-oriented computer applications. This option offers students desiring to have a scientific background for programming to be more marketable in areas such as NASA that require a scientific/engineering background.
All students who complete 60 credit hours of coursework in Computer Science (Scientific/Business) program and meeting all relevant university requirements awarded an Associate of Science degree in Computer Science.
